Modellbundesbahn, Rail transport model exhibition in Brakel, Germany
The Modellbundesbahn features 1,100 meters of tracks, 900 wagons, and 80 locomotives, representing German railway operations from summer 1975 at 1:87 scale.
After ten years of scientific research and documentation, construction of the model railway began in 2004, with the official opening taking place in October 2005.
The exhibition recreates the railway stations of Ottbergen and Bad Driburg with precision, including every brick of the Ottberger engine shed counted for accuracy.
Located at Rieseler Feld 1b in Brakel, the exhibition opens Thursday through Sunday from Easter to October, and Sundays only from November to April.
Five professional model builders and fifteen volunteers handcrafted all landscapes and trees, investing over 35,000 work hours in the expansions.
